Something not opening?
I can’t find the file I downloaded.
In Safari, tap the Downloads button next to the address field. In Files, check Downloads under iCloud Drive or On My iPad, depending on your download settings. You can also search Files for the product name. If you need another copy, choose Re-download your brushes above.
Procreate isn’t showing up in the share menu.
Save the file to Files and import it from inside Procreate using the guide above. Check the file type first: a ZIP needs unzipping, and an access PDF needs its download link opened in a PDF reader.
The import finished, but I can’t see my purchase.
Check the right destination: brushes in Brushes, palettes in Palettes, fonts in the text style panel, and canvases or models in the Gallery. In Procreate 5.4, look through your brush libraries; older custom brushes are in Classic Library.
The download link or file isn’t working.
For an expired email link, follow the renewal instructions in your purchase/download email and check the email address you used at checkout for the new link. The Order … is Ready email renews access when you open the original expired link. If a file still fails, check that the download finished and that you opened the file inside any ZIP. Contact support if renewal fails or a link requests access. Keep the original files while you troubleshoot. Don’t delete Procreate to fix an import problem.
